To registerWhen does our booking become binding, and how much is the deposit?

Deposit per category:
- Teams: 150 EUR
- Group stunt / EuroCheer: 50 EUR
- Partner stunt, individual, double dance: 10 EUR
What is the registration by name, and what documents do we need?
In the online tool, all individuals (athletes, substitute runners, coaches, support staff, etc.) must be registered as members once.
Required per person:

- Proof of age (e.g. identity card or birth certificate) – a Cheerpass without an age stated is not sufficient
- a recent photo (you can also upload it directly using your smartphone camera)
You then assign the members to their respective teams and categories – this is necessary to ensure that the start times and fees are calculated correctly.
